• If the bass sound seems too strong:
Set “BGC” to “ON”. This activates a filter that gently reduces very
deep bass below 55 Hz to provide the flattest overall deep bass
response. Select “ON” or “OFF” according to how strong you prefer
the deep bass response to be.
• This can be set when the “THX Ultra2 Subwoofer” setting is set to
“Yes”.

• This can be set when GUI menu “Speaker Configuration” – “Surround
A” and “Surround B” are used (vpage 29).
• Make the surround speaker settings when the input mode is set to
“EXT. IN” at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “Audio Setup” – “EXT. IN
Setup” (vpage 33).
• Please set all THX Certified speakers, set the “Speaker Configuration”
for all speakers to “Small”. We recommend using with the crossover
frequency set to “FIXED–THX–”, but depending on the speaker,
setting it to a different frequency may improve frequency response
near the crossover frequency.
• The “Crossover Frequency” can be set when there are speakers
that have been set to “Small” at GUI menu “Speaker Configuration”
or when “Subwoofer” is set to “Yes” (vpage 29).
• At the “Advanced” settings, if the “Subwoofer Setup” (vpage
29) setting is set to “LFE–THX–”, GUI menu speakers for which
“Speaker Configuration” is set to “Small” can be set. If set to
“LFE+Main”, the setting can be made regardless of the speaker
size.
• For speakers set to “Small”, sound below the crossover frequency
is cut from the sound output. The cut bass sound is output from the
subwoofer or front speakers.
About Speaker Type Setting when Using Both
Surround speakers A and B
If “Small” is set for either surround speakers A or B, the output is the
same as when “Small” is set for both A and B.
